Best 5-string Bass for around $1,000

What would you get as a good all-around 5-string for around $1,000, maybe a little more? I'm thinkin' a new Lakland 55-02, or a nice custom Carvin. I play in a original/cover Blues Band, and have major jamband influences. Play fingerstyle, like tight strings, lowest action possible w/o buzzin', and tonal variety.

I just got a Czech made Spector Rebop5. Smokin' bass. 35" scale (great B string) and they ship from the US factory with super low action. The controls are simple -- volume/volume, bass boost/treble boost, but you can coax lots of sounds from it. Light too; makes my G&L feel like a bag of bricks hanging from my shoulders. You can find one new for right around a grand.

I feel I've got to chime in with my advice to try out an Ibanez EDA900/905. Brand new they run $600/$660 with another $120 or so for the hardshell case. They're a little different, and surely not for everybody, but most everyone I know has commented on the great feel and unqiue tone. I personally am in love with my 905.
